Nano-Air Bomber Jacket - Men's

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the Nano-Air Bomber Jacket designed for?

  It is an active-insulation layer: synthetic fill that breathes and stretches, so you can keep it on while moving uphill and still have warmth when you stop. It suits cool-weather hiking, climbing, ski touring and everyday wear more than deep-winter static cold.
• How does synthetic insulation compare with down in a jacket like this?

  Synthetic fill keeps insulating when damp and dries faster, which is why it is used in breathable active layers. Down packs smaller and is warmer for its weight when dry. If you sweat while wearing the jacket or expect wet weather, synthetic is the more forgiving choice.
• How should I layer it?

  Wear a wicking baselayer underneath and treat the bomber as your mid or outer layer in dry conditions. In rain or strong wind, add a shell over it; the jacket itself is wind-resistant rather than waterproof.
• How does the fit run?

  The bomber cut is trim through the body with a stretch shell and knit cuffs. Size for the layers you plan to wear underneath: your usual size over a baselayer, one up if you want room for a heavier midlayer.
• How do I wash a synthetic insulated jacket?

  Close the zips, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, and tumble dry on low. Skip fabric softener and dry cleaning, which can degrade the water-repellent finish on the shell.
